Enrique Tarrio and the Proud Boys, Stewart Rhodes and Ivan Raiklin (the self proclaimed “Secretary of Retribution”) have announced they’ll be holding a press conference at the US Capitol today… Nothing to see here. Just far-right extremist groups feeling legitimized & emboldened.

Ann Telnaes resigned after the Washington Post editorial page killed her cartoon. It’s worth a share. Big Tech executives are bending the knee to Donald Trump and it’s no surprise why: Billionaires like Jeff Bezos like paying a lower tax rate than a public school teacher.

“I promise I’ll stop drinking if you let me lead the most powerful military in the world and give my job literal life or death stakes” is kind of a banger though. Not what we expected but what we deserve.
